pg_current_xlog_location displays the current transaction log write
location in the same format used by the above functions. Similarly,
pg_current_xlog_insert_location displays the current transaction log
- insertion point. The insertion point is the logical end
- of the transaction log
- at any instant, while the write location is the end of what has actually
- been written out from the server's internal buffers. The write location
- is the end of what can be examined from outside the server, and is usually
+ insertion point and pg_current_xlog_flush_location displays the
+ current transaction log flush point. The insertion point is the logical
+ end of the transaction log at any instant, while the write location is the end of
+ what has actually been written out from the server's internal buffers and flush
+ location is the location guaranteed to be written to durable storage. The write
+ location is the end of what can be examined from outside the server, and is usually
what you want if you are interested in archiving partially-complete transaction log
- files. The insertion point is made available primarily for server
+ files. The insertion and flush points are made available primarily for server
debugging purposes. These are both read-only operations and do not
require superuser permissions.
